Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions
ackblom12:
Tactics was definitely a lot more fun. I mean, it was pretty easy later on, but then again I spent hours throwing rocks at my own team members in the first game and healing every round because the game was fucking stupid and allowed me to and had a sheer cliff for a learning curve.
Narr:
I didn't really care for the GBA one too much because it was just too easy. I never once felt threatened, making that entire game a cakewalk. The story for the GBA one was pretty kiddy, too, which was a turn-off for me.
And as for how close it is to the original, it's the same game. It's techincally a port with extra stuff, none of which I have encountered yet because I'm still going through the first chapter. So if you didn't like it because you thought it was too difficult early on, you'll still not like it. As for the story, I CAN ACTUALLY TELL WHAT IS GOING ON NOW! I beat the original FFT many years ago and up until now, I had no idea what the hell was going on. It feels like the first playthrough for me all over again because of that.
edit: I should mention, the first chapter isn't all that difficult if you don't care about your starting team getting waxed permanently. You might lose one or two for good, but it's nothing a new recruit and a few random encounters won't solve.

I'd take a real new Shining Force over any of those. Or at least a remake of Shining Force 3, with all three scenarios.
Storm Rider:
I never played Shining Force (because the Genesis was for suckers), but I am skeptical about it being superior to Fire Emblem.
Because Fire Emblem is awesome.
Ozymandias:
Any superiority Fire Emblem has over Shining Force is solely due to Nintendo treating their great titles with actual respect and not abandoning them.
Sega sucks. :(
